failures of repute
you´ve become letters on the screen
a black and white scheme
you´re a reason to look back
you´re fixed on semi-gloss paper
you faint you pale you blur
fingertips prowl on their own
wander back into the pockets where they belong
they´ve gotten stiff in clasping fists
while tectonic plates were shifting
it dropped away
it´s not longer holding sway
you lurk under scribbled sheets
until a soft gust sets you free
still a lure to dwell upon
you´re fixed on semi gloss paper
to faint to pale to blur
weak bonds tied us together
but i did not cut them off
i´m not the one to blame
i only perforated them
failures of repute
we salute you
high council of despair
we´re almost there
